March 9 - 11, 9:00am - 5:00pm EST

From Icarus to Jack and the beanstalk, to ancient Anasazi legends – we have dreamed of ascending to the heavens. Usually, these are cautionary tales. “Don’t tempt the gods”. “Don’t rise about your station”. And yet, we rise! First, we dreamed of flying. We achieved it. Then we dreamed of launching. Done. The next step was a ‘giant leap’ on the Moon. Now what? Elevators!

Blue Marble Week explores:

- Gravitational Elevators (Lunar Space Elevator Infrastructure)

- Centripetal Elevators (Space Elevators from Earth).

We’ll look at both through the lens of

1) Hardware, 2) Business, 3) Outreach, and 4) Framework.

Join us for a host of speakers discussing the topics of

1) Workforce Development

2) Infrastructure and Space Hardware

3) The Linkage of Cyber and Space

4) Transportation and Industrial Base

Please join us!
